VISITED BY MANY PEOPLE.
The Attendance at the Y. M. G. A.
Rooms During March.

The attendance at the Young Mems Chris
tian Association rooms during March was
larger than that of any preceding month
since the association was organized Two
thousand six hundred and four persons Wis
tied and had the privileges of the reading
room, parlor and gymnasium. The total
attendance at the gospel services and Bible
classes was 32l. The attendance at the daily
Bible class, which meets every morning from
S:l5 to S:45, is not large, but those able to
be present are much interested in and
greatly benefited by the course OF daily read
ings. The notes used by the class are those
prepared by the evangelist, D. w. Whittle
who also had the use of Mr.. Moody's marked
Bible in preparing them.
The training class-study Of the Bible by
books and divisions, and dealing with special
subjects-meets every Tuesday evening
The gospel service for men, to be held in
the gymnasium hall this afternoon, will be
conducted by Mr.. II, d. Phillips Hearty
singing and short talks are features of these
services, speakers following the leader being
limited to three minutes.
All young men are cordially invited TO at
tend both classes and services

Sporting Miscellany.

The London Sporting Life of April 2
says that the Dauntless cruises to the Azores
after trip to Norway.
There is now every reason to believe that
the Mayfower will not go to England to
compete with the Arrow for the Tankerville-
Chamberlayne cup.
The first fatal prize fight in this country
since Jimmy Weldon beat Walker to death
down in Jersey, took place last week in
Napa, Cal. The combatants were Elijah
Walters and Tom Wagner. In the first
round Walters received q blow on the head
and fell unconscious. He remained in that
state all night and died the next morning
That same day two men were killed steeple-
chasing in France by being thrown from
their horses.
A billiard ball is the latest English varia-
ton of dance. The ladies wear either
black, white OF red, and the seats next the
wall are cushioned with green, which makes
a good background for them. The floor is
marked out with chalk lines and spots; the
pockets are hooks big enough to hold two
chairs. All possible punning illusions to
the game are made in costume and decora-
tions, and an ingenious host can really en-
tertain his guests by his cleyerness. The
Royal Corinthian Yacht Club has the credit
of planning the device.

tries are now in progress at j. Gardner's,
No. 30 1-2 Bull street. The prizes have al
ready been announced in the MORNING
NEWS and by circular sent out by the asso-
citation.
The art exhibition will be held in the ar
mory building. The large yards west of the
armory will be covered with canvas and
arranged for the exhibition of fruits and
flowers. Mr. Gardner, who has charge of
the entries, is anxious that exhibitors in
tending to enter either flowers or works of
art for competition will do so at once, SO that
the committee will have time to arrange
space for their proper display. After the
articles are once arrayed they will be under
the exclusive charge of the Fair Committee
All fruits, flowers and vegetables offered for
prizes must have their names annexed,
legibly and correctly written, and must
have been grown by the competitors. Speci-
mems offered for exhibition by others than
the growers must in all cases have the
names of the growers affixed if known.
The officers of the association say that the
outlook for the exhibition.is that it will ex-
coed anything of the kind that has ever been
held in Savannah.

Yellowstone Kits Liberality and Char

Yellowstone Kit, who is now the chief at
traction in Albany, is remarkable man in
more respects than one. That he is a chart
table, liberal and open-hearted man is clear
ly proven by his deeds and the gifts that he
bestows upon needy subjects and charitable
institutions every day OF his life. He gives,
and he gives literally, to worthy objects.
On Thursday a prominent citizen of Worth
county was in the city with a subscription
list asking for contributions to aid in build
ing a church at Sumner. The amounts set
opposite the names on the list ranged from
% cents to 81. The man, hearing of Kits
liberality, handed his subscription list up to
him. Kit looked at it a moment, saw that
it was a church subscription, and handed the
man a ten-dollar bill The gentleman from
Worth was highly pleased with the subscrip-
ton from the strange Medicine Man"
which was much more liberal than he had
expected He then said to Kit: ''What is
your name: | want to put it dow! here, "
Il have no name when it comes to contrib
uting to the cause of Christianity or chart
ty" Again, on yesterday, Kit gave five
dollars to an unfortunate cOlOred man who
had lost his cabin by fire And so we might
go on and mention several other instances
in which this stranger, who has created such
a sensation in the city, has shown himself TO
he a man of transformations charity and lib
crafty There can be no doubt of the fact
that be is making money every day, for he
sells large quantities of his medicines and
treats many patients but it is but fair to
say that he is charitable and is liberal with
his money among the poor and needy wher-
ever he gOes.-AtbdNy (GG) NelCS and Ad-

LITTLE ONES MADE HAPPY.
Easter Festival at the Episcopal Or
phanS' Home.

phanS' Home.
IT has long been a custom with the Board
of Managers of the Episcopal Orphans
Home to give the children an Easter festival
during the week following Easter day. This
year the festival was postponed until Satur-
day, and yesterday afternoon a number of
the ladies of the board, other friends of the
institution, and several children, went out to
Isle of Hope to the temporary Home.
The children sang two or three hymns and
then song, Deaconess Ransford presiding
at the organ. Refreshments We're then an
nounced The children formed in line, and,
led by Sister Charlotte as their matron is
faniharly called, marched to the dining
room, singing as they went. Praise God
from whom all blessings flow" was sung by
proceeded to enjoy the plentiful supply of
cake, ice cream, fruits and candy with
which the table was loaded. Everywhere
were beautiful flowers tastefully arranged
There were wreaths in the dining room and
moss festooned from post to post of the
porch. The word "Welcomen was over the
door
After the refreshments had been partaken
of the children enjoyed themselves in games
and in dancing the old English dance ''Sir
Roger de Coverly," bearing a strong re-
semblance in the eyes of the uninitiated to
the Virginia reel" Everything passed off
very happily, and the grown people as well
as the children enjoyed the simple but
pleasant festival

WORDS FOR THE YOUNG.
Sam Small's Advice to Children and
Young People.


The children's meeting at Trinity Metho-
dist Church was not largely attended yester-
day afternoon, although there was fair
sized audience present.
After a song or two, led by Prof. NJ. j.
Maxwell, Rev T. r. Christian gave short
exhortation to the young. He was followed
by Rev Sam Small, whose text was For
the promise is unto you and your
children" That promise is authoritative,
Mr. Small remarked. God had given
promises at different times through the
prophets, but some times the people doubted
lust as now men will say, ooh, that inter
state commerce law is unconstitutional, and
is absurd" God wrote the law with his
finger on the tablets of stone, and there is
not living creature who wants TO know
the ten commandments who cannot have
them.
The command was given, "Thou shalt
teach them diligently in thy house" But
how few people do teach their children the
commandments Mr. Small continued and
he added I'VE are too continually setting
up our personal authority instead of Gods.
A father will say, If you don't do so and so
will thrash YOU He had better take the
Bible and set its teachings up as law for his
children instead of the big eye
"a great many people say that they do not
believe there is any authority in the Bible for
family prayer, and that it is only sort of
regulator adoped by the churches. That
is all mistake" said the speaker, ''for man
is told to praise God when he lieth down and
when he riseth up. Home instruction in the
scriptures has a wonderful influence upon
the life of the children growing up"
Abiding to his own case, Mr. Small stated
that he believed it was his mothers instruc
ton in his early life which eventually re-
formed him There is nothing SO valuable
that a family loses as family devotion when
a family does not hold it, he observed. The
last part of his address was an appeal to
those present to study and obey the Bible
